Anyone else tired of Tarantino homages?

Anyone else just getting so tired of other filmmakers tributing this dude? It’s been over 30 years, aren’t we done with him? Aside from the fact that he hasn’t made a good movie in 29 years. Aside from the fact that everything Quentin does well Elmore Leonard did brilliantly before him. Aren’t we just tired of other filmmakers taking their swing? Wouldn’t it be more exciting to do something different, and then we’d feel the same sensation as watching Pulp Fiction in 1994. There’s a really solid essay to be written about how Sam Levinson diluted the cult of Tarantino down to dusty locations and Mexican standoffs, forgetting entirely the sense of pace and wit that Tarantino possesses when he’s at the height of his power. Personally, I always feel embarrassed watching people try to do their imitation of Tarantino. He’s already a hack, so imitating his work is like a photocopy of a photocopy of a photocopy. It might be meta were it not so tiresome
